Introduction
Brands are increasingly aware that they need to stand out in the lives of their consumers, in addition to the quality of their products and services. Small and medium-sized companies are also beginning to realize the need to impose themselves in advertising to reach larger audiences. The growth of advertising investment is a reliable variable, advertising professionals need to be increasingly able to understand the different characteristics of advertising communication in the most diverse segments.
Advertising must be understood as an area of its own, capable of conveying a message and creating social, economic and cultural realities. Being an advertiser today means having plural scientific knowledge, which aims to understand phenomena and acquire critical and conjectural thinking. It is, therefore, the responsibility of advertisers to use these tools to reach new points of view in human communication performances.
If there is a great challenge in being an advertising professional, that challenge is freeing ourselves from all our prejudices about life. The advertiser is a social shaper of culture, the vector that will guide, through different languages, the possible realities that will be given in specific contexts. Therefore, we must leave aside everything that is "right" or "wrong", "beautiful" or "ugly" within our reality, to build a harmonious world for all possible existences. Being an advertiser is not about selling "things" creatively, but building realities that reasonably integrate all existences and resistances, this is our daily challenge.
